Sunday, July 18

Jehovah’s day is coming exactly as a thief in the night.—1 Thess. 5:2.

 

In the short time remaining before his “day” begins, Jehovah expects us to keep busy in the preaching work. We need to make sure that we are “having plenty to do in the work of the Lord.” (1 Cor. 15:58) When Jesus spoke about all the significant things that would happen during the last days, he added: “Also, in all the nations, the good news has to be preached first.” (Mark 13:4, 8, 10; Matt. 24:14) Just think: Every time you go in the ministry, you are having a share in fulfilling that Bible prophecy! Year by year, the Kingdom-preaching work is moving ahead. For example, think about the increase in the number of Kingdom proclaimers worldwide during the last days. In 1914, there were 5,155 publishers in 43 lands. Today, there are some 8.5 million publishers in 240 lands! Even so, our work is not yet over. We must keep proclaiming God’s Kingdom as the only solution to all mankind’s problems.—Ps. 145:11-13. w19.10 8 ¶3; 9-10 ¶7-8

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.

For us who are under Jehovah's guidance and protection this can be viewed as good news for us who are awake to the times we are living in. We have been forewarned that Jehovah's day is coming as a thief. Those who are in the world, do not know what is coming. Noah stayed awake in his day and remained obedient in his assignment. The flood came as a thief to that world.  1 Thess chapter 5 continues in vs 5 and 6 with more comforting thoughts. We are not in darkness so that day should overtake us and we are urged to stay awake and keep our senses.  In vs 3 we await that cry of peace and security to signal the end is finally here.

The one showing favor to the lowly is lending to Jehovah
